Glasha's Peak²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Martin⁽¹⁰⁾| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 104

16/1

Has shown enough to think she can pick up a race or two over hurdles, brought down when going well at Plumpton and then not seen to best effect back there 4 weeks ago. Drops in class and considered.

Form: P/38-4B5

Merry Mistress²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: David Dennis| OR: 104| D

11/4

Bumper winner who opened her account over hurdles in Hereford handicap over this trip 3 weeks ago, drawing clear and eased. Can go well again up 7 lb.

Form: 5-45331

Tashunka⁴²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 103

6/1

Hasn't stood much racing but she's run well in handicaps the last twice 6 months apart. Can win one if she can hold it together.

Form: 0/3U7-24

Wilderness^b1⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: M G Nolan| T: J W Mullins| OR: 103

40/1

Maiden winner at Exeter in April. Struggled in the mud there 6 weeks ago and these quicker conditions more in her favour, while the handicapper has given her a chance. Blinkers go on.

Form: 41-3280

Jaunty Soria^p³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 100| D

10/1

Struck again at Perth in September under this rider and back to form in first-time cheekpieces when second at Fontwell last time, seen to good effect from the front. This is tougher nudged up 2 lb.

Form: 7-441P2

Branson Missouri²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Page Fuller| T: H J L Dunlop| OR: 97

18/1

Dual point winner who made a satisfactory start for new yard when 11¼ lengths fourth of 11 to Merry Mistress on handicap bow at Hereford 3 weeks ago. 3 lb drop will help her cause.

Form: 455244

Daytime Ahead²⁶⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 11-4| J: James Davies| T: C J Down| OR: 96| CD

66/1

C&D winner who also landed a pair of Exeter handicap hurdles in 2019-20. Never fired in 3 runs last term and might need this starting out for Chris Down.

Form: 515/7P3-

Electric Annie³³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: H Cobden| T: Jack Barber| OR: 95

13/2

Form: 967P-72

Chantilly Haze¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Conor Ring⁽³⁾| T: P C Dando| OR: 95

8/1

Good efforts back over 2m the last twice, chasing home subsequent hat-trick scorer at Leicester a fortnight ago. Longer trip fine and one to consider off same mark.

Form: 022742

Sarceaux²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Ben Bromley⁽⁷⁾| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 94

28/1

Fair 12.5f Flat winner in France and likely has a race in her in this sphere, perhaps needing the run again here 26 days ago. Steps up in trip with conditional able to take off 7 lb this time.

Form: 8-323F4

Leading Ewe On²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: G Sheehan| T: Jamie Snowden| OR: 93

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: J J Burke| T: T R Gretton| OR: 92

Fine By Her⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Harry Bannister| T: J S Smith| OR: 91

100/1

Little impact in bumpers/over hurdles, never a threat on first run for 6 months at Stratford. Hard to fancy.

Form: 0F75-59

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: C E Longsdon| OR: 90

14/1

Forecasts

Merry Mistress (11/4), Tashunka (6/1), Electric Annie (13/2), Chantilly Haze (8/1), Jaunty Soria (10/1), Lincoln Lyn (10/1), Queen Of The Court (12/1), If I Say (14/1), Glasha's Peak (16/1), Branson Missouri (18/1), Sarceaux (28/1), Spirit Of Rome (33/1), Checkitsme (33/1), Wilderness (40/1), Daytime Ahead (66/1), Leading Ewe On (66/1), Fine By Her (100/1), The Cilleens (100/1)

A whole host to consider, with GLASHA'S PEAK chanced. She's shown enough to think she can win handicaps over hurdles, with bits of her form reading well, and drops in grade here. Merry Mistress is the only last-time-out winner in the field and was impressive at Hereford so has to be respected up 7 lb. Chantilly Haze is also one for the shortlist.
